WHAT'S SO SUPER ABOUT SUPERDELEGATES?

Ok, so now we're in the twilight of this campaign. Hillary Clinton has finally stuck not only her foot, but her leg and her torso into her mouth over this insulting Bobby Kennedy related debacle. We know that not only can't she be the nominee in every metric in everyones account book, she should NEVER be the nominee. You just can't say something like that and expect to be the president. So, now Even Hillary Clinton knows she can't and won't ever be the nominee for president.

That begs the next question. What are the superdelegates waiting for? it's almost as if the remaining superdelegates, Al Gore and Nancy Pelosi included should at least have the political guile, stamina and fortitude to say who they are for in this campaign, lest we remind the remaining superdelegates that a brokered convention at this time in our history would be far worse than riots in the streets of Chicago in 68.

it would mean a drastic split in out electorate, a rift that might never heal, and even worse, a democracy in violation of it's own reason for existing. So you democratic superdelegates, whoever you are, get off your butts, and make a decision. The American people are tired of indecisive politicians, and if we have to we'll rewrite the democratic rulebooks to make sure this kind of ridiculousness never happens again. Remember, you work for us. And one part of your job is making decisions. So, like the ad says. JUST DO IT.
